Weighted Hyperextension

Instructions

1. Position yourself face-down on a hyperextension bench with your hips on the pad and ankles secured.
2. Hold a weight plate against your chest and let your torso hang down, hinging at the hips.
3. Extend your hips and lower back to raise your torso until it is in line with your legs.
4. Squeeze your glutes at the top, then lower under control back to the start.
